It’s easy!
You try and attend as many meet ups as you can and spend time with like minded friends.
If there happened to be another set out there that I desired as much as the ones that I currently own, I’d still be in the game.
The absolute best part of this hobby is the people you meet and befriend along your journey. Over time, when I look back, it’s amazing to me thinking about all the places where I’ve gotten to sit and splash pots with these friends.
I look at it from a point of just because I’m not hunting chips down anymore to complete sets doesn’t mean I’m not involved in the hobby. There are still some chips (stragglers/diamonds in the ruff) out there that will turn up and I’d buy or possibly work out a trade for.
There’s also members/friends that are working on things important to them that I still try and keep an eye out for and there are still many people I still hope to meet in person at some point.
@liftapint being at the top of my long list. Love you Mel.
Just because my hunting days are more or less over at this point doesn’t mean my passion for poker with like minded friends is. This hobby as a whole has been an AMAZING journey for me, I wouldn’t be in the place I’m currently in in life had it not been for being involved in this hobby.
At times, I’m very turned off by the course of some things, but in the end, it’s not enough to keep me from wanting to go to the next meet up and spend time with friends NEW AND OLD.
Finding chipping through my passion for poker guided me to where I am at this exact moment in time and I know unequivocally it’s exactly where I’m supposed to be.
